Itarrimnn Will Give the New Cars) a
Thorough Test.
The McKeen motor car builders at
e Union Pacific shops In Omaha are
about to begin on an order for 20
of these new cars, says the Oman
Bee. This order has been received
from the east and must be filled as
soon as possible. It Is understood the
cars will be well distributed over the,
country, more for advertising pur
poses than anything else.
While the motor car leaped Into the
front rank of popularity at the outset,
and Mr. Harrlman haa thrown th
weight of his personal Influence be
hinj) It, It It tacitly admitted that th.
Ingenious and stimulating effect of
advertising that greatest of all mo
tive powers In the world of commerce
Is nf.eded to rut this new enterprise
where It belongs before the public.
and so Mr. Harrlman has decided no
better means of advertising Ib possl
ble than the car Itself.
These cars have been turned out oi
the local shops by numbers and when
this glirantlc order came the workmen
were engaged on No. 8. The seven
cars In service are scattered over the
Ifarrlmnn lines in various parts of the
countrv. The one Rent east has arous
ed a riot of enthusiasm and It Is be
lieved others will be as eagerly re
ceived there as rapidly a they can
be manufactured.

He declares that the flood Is stead
ily falling, having popped seven feet
In 10 days, and was less than 21 feet
deep yesterday. He states that tho
prospects for the valley were never
better.
The' barley fields are yielding at the
rate of 75 bushels to the acre, melons
are being shipped to market at the
rate of 30 cars a day, there are four
varieties of grapes rlpo on the vines,
date culture has passed the expert
mental stage, and a large acreage will
be set out by private Interests In the
proper season and bananas are also
proving a profitable crop, although
but a few acres yet having been set
to this fruit.
Okanognn Bids Itcjoctcd.
Bids for the construction of storage
works for the Okanogan Irrigation
project have been rejected by the In
terior department, on the ground that
all were excessive. The lowest bidder
was Matthew P. Zlndorf. of Twlsp
The main canal of this preject, It has
been decided, will be constructed by
the government by dny labor. The en
gineers consider that the work can be
done for $79,000.
One reason why truth telling Is so
unpopular Is because It is so apt to
be unpleasant.
Are You Tired, Nervous

The trouble with most tonics ana mea

greatly Injures the system. One may feel
exhilarated and better for the time being,
